1 tablespoon roasted and then lightly crushed sesame seeds
ground black pepper
2 tablespoons sesame oil (I use only 1 with a non-stick pan)

my aunt taught me of soaking ginger)
350 g boneless skinless chicken breasts, slice into 1/8 inch thick slices and pounded
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 large mushrooms, sliced
2 fresh hot green chili peppers, cut crossways into 1 cm segments (you can de-seed

(I use lots of it), sesame oil and sake in a bowl.

7. Now add the mushrooms and green chili to the pan and pour the remaining
marinade to the pan and stir for one minute.
